Fun with maps

I spent much of Saturday hanging out at Titan Games working on my OSR Superstar entry, surrounded by people playing Magic, WarmaHordes, 40k, and a variety of board games. I didn’t get involved in any games myself, and only spoke to a couple of people. It was a really nice way to spend a hot and humid Saturday afternoon. Sometimes it’s nice to just be around other people who like the same sort of things you do, soaking up the ambiance. Plus, I got a complete draft of my entry written up.

Speaking of, I’m pretty pleased with my adventure: Keroth’s Bridge. I’m still making a few tweaks, finishing off the map, and feeling a little less rushed since Erik pushed the due date back. This means I can actually clean up the map before I ink it and do all the crosshatch fill, and then add the numbers after I scan it, rather than hand write the numbers.

The new due date is Sunday, but I think I'm going to try to get it wrapped up by Wednesday, since I have a busy weekend. Specifically, it looks like my DCC game at Charm City Game Day is full plus one! 9 Players if everyone shows up! I haven't run a table that large in over a decade... Definitely not pulling any punches...
